Well you still can lol. This is just a test one, final will be stainless and that was one part I'm planning on changing a touch. Thank you

@SPhelps23 I am ready to buy one of these from you. But it has to be far enough away from the grill to run AEV 7100s. It is my opinion that they are some of the best lights to have.

Will your final product be the same finish as the AEV bumper (or close)? That would be fantastic. I can’t stand rust so I’m glad to hear you’ll be using stainless.

Any thoughts on timing? I am ready to buy. Thanks.

Dear Santa (@SPhelps23) : in a perfect world, I'd request to have 4 tabs that look like this (evenly spaced across the radius), so that I could mount two white AEV 7100s and two Amber AEV 7100s. I know, I know, beggars can't be choosers, but I'm asking anyway, ha!!

Also, I will have mine Line-X'd to take the abuse of road debris, so I would take it raw stainless with enough "wiggle room" in the mounting points for Line-X. Or, maybe just the front bar gets Line-X'd and the stainless brackets get powder coated.

Will it fit down my chimney?! I hope!!

I would hope they are fabricating something like this for our truck as a add on. Only time will tell.

My contact at AEV said they were, but I am wondering how it would attach to the OEM bumper. I don't know if you guys saw the one show truck, but they had this mount for it, but it was for the 2500.

Well damn, a quick google search returned this:

Yes please.

 

[bobholthaus]

Yes please.

I'm searching all over and cannot find it. It was a video from a show (Not SEMA) from about a year ago, and AEV did a one off mount, low hoop, for a 2500. It was awesome. But I cannot find it. That's when I reached out to my AEV contact about it and he said, "it's in the works". I can ask him again, he's a nice guy. He's Director of Sales.

Had to wait to get lights to make sure they actually fit. But all went as planned. I am more than willing to make them and sell them to guys. Again they are setup for 4 or 5 Baja Designs XL linkables
